Background: The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most
promising technologies that aims to enhance humans’ quality of life (QoL). IoT
plays a significant role in several fields such as healthcare, automotive
industries, agriculture, education, and many cross-cutting business
applications. Despite the growing body of literature on IoT security in recent years,
critical gaps remain unaddressed.
Objectives: This study explores the multifaceted security
issues of IoT environments, highlighting current gaps and presenting modern
technological solutions. The key purpose of the study is to systematically
explore the diverse security challenges in IoT environments, critically assess
current technological solutions, and identify unresolved issues along with
potential directions for future research.
Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted for
the period 2020–2025, covering more than 50 studies from IEEE, ACM, Elsevier,
and SpringerLink. Selected papers were evaluated based on relevance,
peer-review status, and contribution to IoT security.
Findings: Security remains a major concern as IoT device connectivity
expands across industries. IoT systems face unique challenges such as weak
authentication, lightweight encryption requirements, and large-scale
heterogeneity. This study synthesises current solutions like multi-factor
authentication, blockchain, and machine learning for intrusion detection.
Conclusion: There is a critical need for integrated,
multilayered security frameworks suitable for large-scale and
resource-constrained IoT deployments. Future work should focus on real-time,
context-aware, and energy-efficient security models validated on realistic
testbeds.
